Any doubts about what the future holds for delivery of the news?

I've always considered LinkedIn more suited for professional networking, but the post lays out a reasonable approach for making something useful of Facebook as well. (You will have to ignore all the quizzes and zombie games though.)

I always knew my background in risk management was an entrepreneurial asset, but it's often little-appreciated in context. Tidbit: there's a 35% chance you'll be killed by one of the survive all ten items you have a 90% chance of getting right.

As he embarks on a British tour, the author talks to David Usborne about plane crashes, Gordon Brown – and why Obama's election was a true tipping point"

It's a little Ubuntu-centric (I'd recommend Mandriva, PCLinuxOS, OpenSuSE...) and misstates one point: OpenOffice is not Ubuntu's office suite, it's Sun's, and is the office suite Ubuntu commonly uses.

Reminds me of the diagram I used to use to illustrate the ideal client: those in the center, naturally.
